What if joining your lover's world meant leaving your own? Kate will have to look hard at her man to determine what is real, what is illusion, and how, if ever, she can get back home.

Ever since her father died, Kate Sweeting’s home life has been in the pits, her well being on life support. Her future looks desolate, too, until she and her mother make another plan: abandon their shriveled existence for more promising prospects on the coast, where Mom can play small-town librarian/bachelorette, and Kate can figure out what’s up with that secretive Blake family from the beach.

Everyone is eerily captivated with Kate and her mother, and Cara is the first to figure out why when the man of her dreams arrives all dripping and devoted and closed-mouthed about what he intends. Kate is willing to go along with their subterfuge for a while, but eventually makes a charge for the water to learn what her mother is hiding. Gabe Blake is there waiting for her… and so is someone considerably less friendly. By the time Kate navigates her way home, everything will have changed for her – what she feels, what she wants, and what she will risk to be with the man she loves.

What is chemical play? Is it acids that are used to burn body parts?
No. It's using different types of substances to illicit sensation on
the skin and perhaps in the body. Generally the substances are in liquid
form for easy application. I'm going to go through only the ones I've
used. I am sure there are more. Hopefully others will be happy to
share their experiences. As usual, I'm going to use the terms Top and
bottom for the person applying the person receiving, respectively.

Safety first

With chemical play, while there is a lessor possibility of harm, it
still exists. There can be adverse reactions. It could be a person is
allergic to the chemical. It is important to ask about any allergies
the bottom may have.

Another thing to be concerned with
chemical play is where it contacts. There are some things which can
burn and temporarily damage delicate mucus membranes. Not everyone's
body reacts the same to chemicals so it is…

What?How can stapling be sexy?Who
wants to be stapled?How on earth did
these BDSM deviants pervert a stapler?
Are these the thoughts running through your
head?They were the thoughts running
through my head.The only time I've seen
stapling done on a person is on the Jackass
Movie.There doesn't seem to
be a clip of it on Youtube.However,
Steve-O from Jackass did do it again with a regular stapler here.
The stapler I'm referring to is NOT a regular
office stapler or a staple gun found at a hardware store.Could you use those?Yes.Is it advisable?No.Instead, we are going to learn about surgical
staple guns.There are a couple of
different brands.
The focus of this topic is where you can
staple and how you can mix it up in your scene. Safety
Yes, it's safety time again!It's boring but mandatory.
First, stapling does cause a break in the
skin.Depending on the person and
sometimes even the time of the month, a person may or ma…

What is a sensual sadist? How does this work? Doesn't a sadist only
give pain? I've read in some books which argue there is no such thing
as a sensual sadist and they don't like that phrase at all.

I
have had the pleasure of attending a class from a self titled, Sensual
Sadist. Here are my notes from the class. Any mistakes are due to me
as a note taker, not the presenter.

The presenter in the class
was Haven. He's a second generation Dom. His parents are in the
lifestyle and lived it as he was growing up in the household.

Haven
was an extremely dynamic presenter who kept the class captivated. He
was well spoken and based on his work at Renaissance Faires, I'm not
surprised. Haven is on fetlife. He also has a blog which he adds to
here and there - Kinky as I am.

What does it mean to be a sensual sadist?

For Haven, it means two parts.

1. More senses than just touch. Toys can be used to caress or cause pain.
